Solar Panel Cleaning
Although solar panels are known to sustain themselves for a long time without requiring much maintenance, the statement is only limited to areas receiving adequate rainfall throughout the year. Due to their inclined installation, rainfall washes off most of the dirt and dust settlement and keeps the surface clean. However, if the region is dry or the panels have stood for a long time, cleaning by mother nature is no longer enough. PV panel cleaning services then become a necessity to maintain PV panel cleaning services then become a necessity to maintain the desired performance and continued support to energy requirements. Cleaning a panel requires expertise. Depending on the output power that you are drawing, a professional service.
DESCRIPTION
Proper dirt removal
PV panel surfaces require the use of non-abrasive cleaning materials that will not leave a scratch after removing a sticky stain. Hence, a solar panel cleaning system kit used by professional services always comes with cleaning apparatus made of materials like microfiber, soft sponge, and even the right brushes which are usually not available at hand.
Optimal water quality
The GSEs guidelines of water quality to be used for the cleaning of solar panels restricts particulate matter content to 200 ppm or less. This is in accordance with the regulations laid out by the National Institute of Solar Energy (NISE) which functions as an autonomous body under the Ministry of New and Renewable Energy (MNRE). Professional solar cleaning equipment will include de-ionized water where particulate matter is less than 75 ppm that prevents scale buildup of any form.
Water jet pressure
Cleaning solar panels with vinegar is also a recommended norm that is widely in use. But this is usually followed by a water jet spray to clean the entire panel surface. Here again, the nozzle pressure cannot go above 35 bars as it may lead to the surface or structural damage to the panel.
